What kills me ..
Is that there are no "good for the planet" energy plans that reduce the cost of living on the average citizen. Everything is designed to punish us.
Every plan for saving planetary resourses and protecting the environment involves driving average people into poverty.
Be it with higher taxes on fossil fuels, food for fuel (which drives up the cost of both) expensive alternative energy sources or mandated higher energy prices designed to force conservation. (like the mandated price hikes built into the Cape Wind contracts)
In the end, regardless of the power source involved, fossil fuels or renewable, the poor will get poorer, the rich will get richer and the politicians will continue to be fat and happy while the average hard working tax payers/rate payers gets the shaft.
